Dead C,uital in Farm r,ncc.

1t is said that the amount Of dead capital
invested in farm fences i'll the United States
alone reaches the immense aggregate of 81
600, 100000, and that the construction of new
fences and the renewal of old ones involves
an outlay of no less than S2OO,0OoVOO annll-
ally. 1t is difficult to fix an approximate
idea of what immense sums as these repre-
sent but some conception of this enormous
investment may bc formed upon the fact that
it nearly equals the capital stock Of all the
railroads of the country, while the annual
expense almost parcllcls the cntirc revcnuc of
